There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Abstract: The objective of the proposed research is to model, design, fabricate and demonstrate ultra-thin, high-performance ultra-thin glass panel embedded package (GPE) for mm-Wave applications. Ultra-thin low-warpage GPE packages were demonstrated with thickness less than 150 µm applying advanced low-cost large panel based double side carrier process. Low-loss interconnects were modeled and designed with interconnection loss below 0.12 dB at 77 GHz enabled by ultra-low loss dielectric, and high precision processing with minimal variations in line and via geometries on glass substrates. A die-package codesign was proposed for high-frequency characterization of ultra-thin GPE package for mm-Wave applications.
